Panko Crusted Italian Baked Fish with Marinara Sauce and Angel Hair

Monday, February 7, 2011

Lesson : DO NOT take a picture holding a hot plate in the center while balancing the camera!!! Well since I tried to make a beautiful plateful of Angel Hair and the presentation was ready for the picture, I went to snap it and the whole plate slid right into the sauce, landed on the stove and as you can see made a horrible mess! I am a clumsy cook at times. Blogging is about presentation, mine is far from perfected, it all about the taste for me and where we came from, taste the same to me no matter if the plate is pretty or plopped onto it in a piles it still tastes great!

In a large enough pie plate or dish to fit the fish, add 1/4 cup olive oil, water and lemon juice, blend together. Dip pieces of fish in that mixture than into panko bread crumbs coating both sides. Place on parchment lined cookie sheet, bake on 350 till browned. This is fry in the oven. About 35 minutes depending on the thickness of the fish. Around 15 minutes before fish is done, cook pasta, drain, toss with 1/4 cup of grating cheese and 4 tablespoons olive oil. Set aside.

To serve, place pasta on plate first, fish on the side, scoop marinara on the middle of the pasta top with more grating cheese and serve.

Perfection is highly overrated! I will never be one of those bloggers where all the food has to be perfect with perfect props. Your food looks delicious and real...something we all crave at home. The fish looks fabulous!

This almost looked like Chicken Parm to me at first, but it's way healthier and it looks so good! The fish looks super crusty, especially for a baked fish, and I think the angel hair and marinara are a great accompaniment. I'm drooling!

Claudia, don't worry about perfection; it's the taste that you've got down pat to perfection and that's what counts after all! Americans perfected fruits and veggies to the point that although they LOOKED perfect, they took out all of the flavor. Now everyone knows what's good and what's not. Your recipes are BEAUTIFUL! I love the panko on the fish too, right next to a light marinara sauce!
